Traveler Anna Crail had a scary moment while on-board flight from Alaska to Hawaii after he phone suddenly burst into flames. According to her, she was watching TV on her iPhone 6 when smoke started to curl up from it as they were in midair on Thursday. She told Komo News she had been on a flight from Alaska to Hawaii with 162 other passengers, over the Pacific Ocean when the phone com-busted.

‘All of the sudden there was like 8-inch flames coming out of my phone, And I flipped it off onto the ground and it got under someone’s seat, and the flames were just getting higher and a bunch of people stood up.’


It’s not clear what caused the phone to catch light, but Aviation expert John Nance told Komo it showed the importance of keeping your phone on Airplane mode to avoid straining the battery by constantly looking for signal

For safety precautions, please always turn off your phone while on-board a plane, especially all these people that love taking selfies in the plane undecided your life is more important than that picture
